I know they weren&#39;t all that cartoony, but they seemed to be creating a lot of &quot;original&quot; material in a decade where -- as you said -- every production had to be an existing brand. <br /><br />If only they were allowed to animate violence.

I was so excited to see it, considering I was 8 years old and an obsessed Garbage Pail Kids collector. Then, when scheduled to premiere, in the TV Guide and everything, it did not happen. There were even commercials for it that morning before the scheduled slot, but something else aired in its place.
